Arctic Monkeys

Arctic Monkeys

Arctic Monkeys son una banda de indie rock procedente de High Green, un barrio de Sheffield, Inglaterra. Sus primeros dos sencillos, "I Bet You Look Good On the Dancefloor" y "When The Sun Goes Down", fueron directos al número 1 de la lista de singles del Reino Unido, y el álbum de debut de la banda, Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not, tiene el record como el álbum de debut más vendido en sus primeras semanas en el Reino Unido, superando al Definitely Maybe, disco de debut de los legendarios Oasis. La banda ganó el premio "Best New Act" en los "Brit Awards" de 2006, y crearon historia en los premios de NME de 2006 al convertirse en la primera banda en ganar el premio a la "Mejor Nueva Banda" y "Mejor Banda Británica" en el mismo año. El segundo álbum de la banda, Favourite Worst Nightmare, vio la luz el lunes 23 de abril de 2007, precedido por el single anticipo Brianstorm, el 16 de ese mismo mes. Las raíces de la banda en el norte de Inglaterra a menudo se destaca como elemento clave del estilo del grupo, y han sido etiquetados como los Libertines del norte, mientras su sonido único y sus letras irónicas - a menudo con crítica social - se han comparado a las de The Jam y The Streets. La banda está formada por Alex Turner (voz y guitarra), Jamie Cook (guitarra rítmica), Matt Helders (batería y coros) y Nick O'Malley (bajista); este último incorporado a la banda en junio de 2006 tras el abandono de Andy Nicholson.

Letra de Balaclava
Running off over next door's garden
Before the hour is done
It's more a question of feeling
Than it is a question of fun
The confidence is the balaclava
I'm sure you'll baffle 'em good
Will the ending reek of salty cheeks
And runny makeup alone?

Oh will blood run down the face
Of a boy bewildered and scorned?
Will you find yourself in a scurmage?
Will you wish you'd never been born?
You tie yourself to the tracks
And there isn't no going back
And it's wrong, wrong, wrong
But we'll do it anyway, 'cause we love a bit trouble.

Are you pulling her from a burning building
Or throwing her to the sharks?
Can only hope that the ending
Is as pleasurable as the start
The confidence is the balaclava
I'm sure you baffle 'em straight
And it's wrong, wrong, wrong
She can hardly wait

That's right, he won't let her out his sight
Now the shaggers perform
And the daggers are drawn
Who's the crooks in this crime?

That's right, he won't let her out his sight
Now the shaggers perform
And the daggers are drawn
Who's the crooks in this crime?

That's right, he won't let her out his sight
That's right, he won't let her out his sight
That's right, he won't let her out his sight
You'd be able to post
Any day of the most
For the sights of all time

You knew that it would be trouble
Right before the very first kiss
Quiet and assuming
But you heard that they were the naughtiest
She pleaded with you to take it off
But you resisted and fought
"I'm sorry sweetheart, I'd much rather
Keep on the balaclava".
